Compiler Error C2361

initialization of 'identifier' is skipped by 'default' label

The initialization of identifier can be skipped in a switch statement. You cannot jump past a declaration with an initializer unless the declaration is enclosed in a block. (Unless it is declared within a block, the variable is within scope until the end of the switch statement.)

Example

void func( void )
{
   int x;
   switch (x)
   {
   case 0 :
      int i = 1;       // error, skipped by default  
      { int j = 1; }   // OK, initialized in enclosing block
   default :
      int k = 1;       // OK, initialization not skipped
   }
}
